No trains will run in Scotland until Tuesday as services are hit by strike action by Network Rail workers.

Network Rail said the pay deal it had offered was "fair and affordable".

Kevin Groves, Network Rail's chief spokesman, said: "We urge the RMT to really think again about looking at what's on the table. And we'll look to see what we can do and sit around the table after the strikes finish in the new year."RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said: "The union remains available for talks to resolve this dispute.

"But until the government gives the rail industry a mandate to come to a negotiated settlement on job security, pay and conditions of work, our industrial campaign will continue into the new year, if necessary." Major disruption to both ScotRail and cross-border services is expected in the first week of January.

Train drivers across 15 rail companies - including TransPennine Express and Avanti West Coast - are planning to strike on 5 January.
